[Friday Facts] Did you know...

[Lizzie]

As it's Friday I thought it is time for some trivia! 🙂

Did you know that...about 44% of the world's population lives within 150km of the sea?  (According to UN Atlas, 2010)

Are you one of the 44%? 🙂

Who is up next? You can either share a Did you know? fact or perhaps test our knowledge with a question.

In fact I did know that, yes :proud:

I was born on an island, right on the seaside, and now I live in a city that's exactly some 150 km off the sea.

Lovely to hear your response @Ana7, I love the sea too. It must be fantastic growing up on an island, was it quite a small island? I suppose in a way living in the UK I have grown up on an island, but I was relatively far (for the UK) from the sea so even now it is a bit of a novelty. 🙂

As it is Friday...it is time for another Friday Fact!!

This week, I have kept on a global theme. 

Did you know that...more countries begin with the letter 'S' than any other - with 28 names beginning with this letter. (According to US Department of State website)

It would be great to hear your Friday Fact! 🙂
